You can put whatever you want in your tweet in any order as long as you include your location (in brackets) hashtag and optionally number of meteors seen. If you don't specify how many meteors seen (The system searches the tweet for a number) it defaults to 1

For your own safety and security, please do not give your precise address or location. Your approximate location e.g. Town, village or suburb is accurate enough for the map.

The Meteor Map is a fun way of sharing your meteorwatch experiences and observations. No information is permanently stored by the map or meteorwatch.org as the map only reads information from twitter.
